As anticipated, India did not take long to bowl out West Indies, who were already down at 87-7 at the end of day 2. Courtesy of some lower-order resistance from Kemar Roach and Rahkeem Cornwall, West Indies only delayed the inevitable as they were bowled out for 117.

Giving credit where credit is due, West Indies bowlers came hard at India in their second innings as Kemar Roach dismissed each of Lokesh Rahul, Mayank Agarwal and Virat Kohli in quick succession. While Agarwal was trapped in front of the wickets, Rahul and Kohli got absolute peaches on the sixth stump line and both fell in the trap.
